‘Show Us Your Shoes,’ Crowd Yelled; OJR Complied

The Owen J. Roberts School District “Wildcats” Marching Band presented a commanding presence during Saturday night’s Show Us Your Shoes parade in Atlantic City NJ

ATLANTIC CITY NJ – Thousands of people turned out to stand or fill chairs on the Atlantic City Boardwalk to watch Saturday evening’s (Sept. 14, 2013) return of the national Miss America Pageant and its popular “Show Me Your Shoes” Parade. Owen J. Roberts School District students and staff members played a role in the parade: its marching band was among the musical groups featured as part of the two-hour long entertainment.

Post Photographer Debbie Zlomek collected these shots of the OJR band and accompanying scenes along the parade route:

There was no mistaking that OJR had arrived …

… with its big sound …

… and commanding presence

A huge float showed off the parade’s theme

You didn’t need much imagination to guess what this woman’s shoes were like

Also on the route, the Philadelphia Eagles Cheerleaders passed by

Band members and other acts passed within arms’ length of the visitor seating in some places
